U8 - U15 Player Evaluations

In an effort to provide more balanced teams, players in the U8-U15 divisions will participate in a player evaluation located at 301 Fleming Loop Road in Fuquay-Varina. At the player evaluations, a trained evaluator and staff will put players through a series of drills to determine the player's skill level. The results of these evaluations are confidential and are not shared with the players, parents or coaches. Players will need to arrive that their designated times (times will be posted online and emailed to parents), check in and go through the evaluation drill. Players should wear t-shirt, shorts and athletic shoes/cleats and must wear shin guards with socks. Bring water, sunscreen and bug spray. Parents may want to bring a small folding chair for themselves and their player as they wait. Once the player has completed the evaluation, they are free to leave. If the player played in the Fall 2016 season, they are not required to attend evaluations.
